Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I made this suit over a long period of time during the winter. It was difficult to get the pleats on the Sidonie Variation crisp enough and I think the material I used made this even more difficult.
I lined both the skirt and the blazer with red lining so as to have a nice contrast to the grayish look of the suit. The buttons on both skirt and blazer are fabric-covered – which was quite a lot of fun to do :)
Material Notes
Grayish-brown light wool and red lining material
